I just found this magnificent clip of Connie Smith doing "Nobody But a Fool" in 1965.
This is great country music sung by a great songstress!
Now, what DVD is this lifted from?

Sunny Sweeney: "Heartbreaker's Hall of Fame" (2006

These days I'm listening to the great debut CD album from the country songstress Sunny Sweeney : " Heartbreaker's Hall of Fame " (2006). Sunny's music is traditional and at the same time fresh and rocking. I love traditional country in the lines of Honky Tonk and Nashville Sound . This CD ...

I watched " McLintock! " over two nights. I wanted to see it because of the beautiful Stefanie Powers (in that regard I was not disappointed). Otherwise I found the film foolish. Not much fun. It tried to be funny but didn't succeed. I didn't like Maureen O'Hara 's character, I guess I wer...

Mr. Even's Country & Western Saloon

Inspired by Dewey I thought I'd start a thread on Country & Western music. I know, from a post in the Western thread, that Anne loves Country music. So, let's start it off with one of my favourites: The country and pop legend Jim Reeves doing " What Would You Do? ", written by Jim Reev...

I have to say I've got one of her movies on DVD " Love Me or Leave Me " which is very good. The minus side being, I think, James Cagney got angry two times too many in it. I've seen " Calamity Jane " on TV, a good movie, but I think she overplays her role. That " I Came In f...

The Last Sunset (1961)

This is one of my favorite westerns. It's a different kind of western. Very melodramatic screenplay by Dalton Trumbo . It features a young and beautiful Carol Lynley . I'd never seen her in anything prior to this. I loved her. Dorothy Malone is very good at the strong woman kind of roles. Like in th...

Women in peril / husband or brother disappears films

The films where a woman is in peril, or other films where a couple is on some kind of trip, and the man disappears are major plot points of many movies. In this thread I'd like us to discuss those kind of movies, if you'd like it. These movies are, nowadays, often regarded as noir films. They're mos...
